Meta's Muse may need 2,000 server trays at reported user scale

Tom's Hardware's estimate combines Meta's Muse's reported 500,000-plus daily active users with 256 sandboxes per hypothetical tray. The figure is napkin math, not a disclosed Meta deployment.

Why it matters

The reported CPU and memory allocation offers a concrete, if unconfirmed, basis for estimating the infrastructure behind persistent AI agents. At the user scale reported by Tom's Hardware, the paper calculation reaches roughly 2,000 trays, but Meta has not disclosed per-user VM specifications, server density or fleet capacity.

User tests of Meta's Muse agent found sandboxes with two vCPUs and about 8GB of memory, a configuration that could fit 256 environments on a hypothetical 512-vCPU, 2TB server. Applying that density to Muse's reported user count produces an estimate of roughly 2,000 server trays.…
